To Turn 18 In 26 Days!

[Roadgeekteen]

Well, we can now let this thread desolve, I really liked the shared experiences though!

Thanks, guys!

I know you're trying to keep your threads on the rails, and rightly so.
But, I find it a bit depressing that your standards are so high. I don't think it's necessary to express dissatisfaction every time there's the slightest deviation from the topic, especially in the off-topic board.
There's only so much that can be said about the original topic. I'd say take what comes; it's not like this is spiraling towards a thread lock or anything. And if it was, that's no reflection on you personally. Most good threads (this one included, probably) don't end with a lock. Believe it or not, there can be happy endings to threads around here.

(IMO)

I think his is asking for a lock in that post.

They offer Driver's Ed at least at Dalton High School. I took the course in 9th Grade (2014-2015), when I was still driving (and had just gotten my permit), and I even got a 99 in the class. It was a very good educational experience for improving one's driving skills, experience, and knowledge. IIRC, my Driver's Ed teacher said that at some point in the beginning of the 2000's, the state of Georgia stopped offering Drivers Ed courses at their public schools, but as of several years ago they have been brought back as it has been proven that students being offered the class are less likely to get in wrecks and such.


Also, here is a treat - my binder cover from that class, which I drew and colored myself.. 

The drawing looks great!

Maybe. But I don't think he wants his own thread locked. Who would?
I think the "thanks" was ironic. He could confirm.

It looks ironic.

Well, I was letting it die, but if we can steer it back on course then so be it!

[Roadgeekteen]

Did you really want it to die?
I intend to post to it on your birthday ( ), and hadn't considered that it might be locked by then.

I read that as did you really want to die and almost had a heart attack.

It's dying... But, we can always hold off until then, the 29th, that is!

I got my license as soon as I could. My school didn't offer driver's ed, which is a shame because I'm sure that I would've really enjoyed that class. I got my licence in June of 2014, and now over three years down the road, I have my CDL and I drive a bus for work.

Thank you very much! I highly enjoyed making it.

Seriously, after all these pages of replies, no one said "happy birthday" on his actual birthday? Sorry I missed saying it yesterday, but I wasn't online, so I'll say it now. Congrats on becoming an adult

Thanks, we went bowling at Bowling World around town. We had fun!

Next Up: 21 and 25

Are you in high school? I assume you are.

[adventurernumber1]

I truly had intentions and plans to wish you a happy birthday on that exact day, but I simply forgot, and so I do apologize for that.

But now I will say, Happy Birthday and congratulations on being 18 now, man!! 

   


I will get there myself on November 13th, in just two short weeks.

I can't really say yet - probably just the fact itself of being an adult.

Don't forget to register to vote, you two.

We lost my Social Security card, we have a .pdf ss5 form complete, we just need to print it off and take it with us. Would the Arkansas Workforce halp or no? There's a Social Security office on Dallas St.

We'll get it!
